The Amber Sword: Act I Burning City


City of Burning Act I

Look back at Year of Flourishing Blossom and Summer Leaf, in the early morning of June 2.

With the lead of the bar owner ’s daughter Su, Freya soon came to Bonoan Market 51, she glanced outwards. Even in the early morning, there are still many people in this Rydenburg largest trading market. The brazier was ignited near and far, and the bright light slightly made people feel more or less at ease --

She walked, but the girl named Su grabbed her hand: "Don't go, there are people hidden in the alley."

This girl with a braid stands at the corner of the street where light and darkness meet, holding one hand by the wall and staring vigilantly outside.

"Is it a guard?" Freya was startled.

"I don't know, but there are two raw faces there, definitely not people in this area." Su shook his head and answered quietly.

Freya pushed the hilt on the mouth of one's own, hesitated a little nervously. At this time, most of the people who appeared on Bonoan Market were soldiers of White Mane Legion, and he expected that those people found Hood. Just wondering if they have met? Should she go up and knock?

The future Valkyrie frowned, suddenly remembering what Brando told her:

"Don't worry if you find traces of the army, they will not fight grass and snakes until they know our relationship. They also want to have a chance to wipe us out."

Think of it here, Freya breathed in. She turned back and asked, "Sue, can you answer some questions for me?"

"What?"

"I ask you, do you know how to tell that a person is lying?"

The dark-skinned girl smiled, "Did I ask that because I often help out at the bar?"

The face of Freya, who was seen through her heart, was red. She really liked Su Yuan's much richer experience and knowledge than herself. In previous conversations with Su, she and everyone naively thought that noble would save them, but Su pointed out the nature of things in just a sentence or two.

So in her mind, this somewhat cold-hearted girl is an extremely sharp and opinionated girl.

"it doesn't matter, I occasionally help others," Su smiled: "Freya, you look at me."

“Ah? "

"What's your friend who said Rydenburg will be breached?"

Freya for a moment, I don't know why the girl in front of me suddenly mentioned this problem. She panicked, her eyes flashed: "Cloth, Brando."

Su's eyes moved: "You like him, right?"

"No, no, Brando, he likes Romaine."

"Eyes, look at me, Freya," Su Ping stared at Freya. Dark brown eyes calmed like a wave of water: "Who is Romaine?"

Freya's face seemed to be on fire, and she dared to see Su there. Her eyes were erratic, she wanted to explain indifferently, but she didn't know where to explain. She feels that she is the No. 1 idiot in Tianzi, or the one without discount. for a moment can't wait to find a place to hide in.

"Understand?" Su asked.

"I see, I see." Freya bowed his head and nodded hard.

She breathed in, grabbed the sword and wanted to go out, but immediately turned back to grab Su's arm: "Sue, can you wait here for me?"

Su Yizheng, but nodded. Suddenly, Freya felt that she was inexplicable, but she always felt that having Su at her side was like Brando, which could give her some confidence.

Then she walked out of the alley, pretending not to care about the unaware eyes around her, and went straight to Bonoan Market No. 51. She raised her hand -- and hesitated. Freya felt at least two sharp drops. To her back, but finally knocked on with enthusiasm.

Bang Bang, the knock on the door seemed to sound in my heart, Freya waited for a moment, and the door opened with squeak. A man with hunched back on his back came out, balding, barely seeing his age. When he saw Freya, he was obviously frightened, and his eyes subconsciously shrank backwards.

"After finding the wool textile merchant named Hood, don't identify yourself first, give him a time, ask him to meet us in the bar. You need to pay attention to his reaction, you know that this person is unreliable."

"Freya, look at me."

Freya captured this subtle change in immediately. The words of Brando and Su remembered in her heart at the same time, which made her cold.

"Who are you, what's the matter with me?" the little man asked after he staggered.

Freya was silent for about a second, she just looked at each other like this, coldly. Then, when the short man couldn't help but wanted retreat, he suddenly pulled out his sword and placed it on the opponent's neck, his eyes sinking slightly.

Sometimes later, when the situation suddenly changed on the scene, Su saw several people in the street subconsciously moved. However, they quickly calmed down and returned to their original state. The movements between -- were very subtle, and only the girl hiding at the corner could see it all.

Freya has no idea what happened behind her, she just held the sword as calmly as possible, and said in a flat tone, "You are the witch accomplice?"

"Don't kill me, are they pushing, forcing me ..., girl ... witch?" The short man was frightened by the sudden change, and sat on the ground with one buttock, only to reflect the look in front of him What a cold ponytail girl asked.

Freya only thought of Brando, wizard Squire, what the person named Ciel's youngster said:

"Your aunt knows a lot, this is the secret spread between wizard and SS14 in this world. There is a book called" Dark Epic "that tells what happened in countless times in the past ..."

"But not necessarily, people related to Magic. Some rural witch also know some rumors in this regard."

In fact, she never thought that she could be so flexible before the sword, or she should be in a state of emptiness. coldly said: "You should call her 'Jenny', forget it ... it doesn't matter, I will give you a lesson first."

She said while lifting the sword, and the textile merchant named Hood was immediately startled and mourned: "Wait, wait, my lord and I it doesn't matter ... No, no, not it doesn't matter, I mean I and she are not The same party. I mean, she is just a relative, no no, distant relative --! "

"Oh?"

"Really, really! You believe me, you believe me, she only occasionally came to the city to receive the -- witch, yes, witch! She did receive some weird things, --! She lives in Bucce with her niece! "

Freya looked at the man, holding back the disgust in his heart. Bring him up with a hand: "But my informant told me that she entered the city a few days ago. You better not deceive me. As a wizard, I can extract your memories and memories at any time!"

The little businessman had been paralyzed by the sword frame around his neck for a long time, and did not hear the language in Freya: "I said, I said, she left Rydenburg to the north two days ago with already."

Freya looked at his eyes and then disgustedly left the guy away. She gasped slightly for one breath, but heard Su whistle at the corner of the alley. She knew that one's own's big action already caught the attention of those people. She must hurry out of here.

But she didn't expect that Aunt Jenny was not here. She went north? To the north is Bruglas. Where is she going? But it doesn't look like this person is lying.

She gritted her teeth and hesitated for a moment.

The afternoon sun was pouring in from the arched floor-to-ceiling windows of the castle, making this room full of flexible colors bright. The girl in a long silver Princess long dress sits on a small round table in the style of Rococo, leaning on a high-backed chair in a standard posture, holding a cup of black tea flat on the slender palm, and holding a silver spoon, motionless , Soft light silver grey eyes staring forward -- as if listening to the story into God.

She has beautiful silver curly hair, half-pointed ears exposing a white tip from the curly hair, she is the favorite daughter of this Oberg VII, and also the first beauty recognized by Aouine.

If in the Brando's era, whether it is a player or NPC, she is called Princess-Regent. If anyone in Aouine can compare with the prestige of Valkyrie, then this is still a little naive Her Highness the Princess.

"Very smart little girl, Everton is a real person." After a while, Princess put down the tea cup and asked quietly, "What about Oberbeck?"

The stern middle-aged man standing in front of her, if Brando is here, he will definitely recognize him. Because of this Correct, "Dunn Count", which was sealed by his sword. But in fact, if in the capital's noble circle, there are not many but many people who know this Lord Count, but he is better known by his nickname:

Wolf KnightOberbeck, a lieutenant next to her Majesty, and one of the core leaders of royalist, have a good personal relationship with Everton and Wood.

Oberbeck looked at this Princess, knowing that the other party is not simple, but she is the jewel in the palm of her Majesty, and he dare not perfunctory.

This time he borrowed the name of the Dunn of the Luis Boerman family to go to Rydenburg -- because both of them are connoisseurs, and they have very similar things in collecting a hobby. Although the looks are not similar, this is not a big problem in the era of news --. He went to do something for Oberg VII, a secret quest / mission.

Thinking of this, he realized that Princess was asking himself a question, and realized: "Naturally, the daughter of Everton Count seems to be at least as good as her father, unfortunately ..."

He wanted to say that it was a pity that she was a woman, but suddenly realized that the Her Highness the Princess, known as the crown of the royal family, hurriedly swallowed the second half.

The girl certainly understood what he wanted to say, but she didn't ask. I just changed a topic and said, "But Lord Count, I was a little confused about your previous story. You deliberately find the youngster trouble, it seems a little bit more."

Oberbeck thought it would be strange if you did n’t understand, but reverently replied: "I'm just worried about his attempts. A Highland Knight, along with his Squire, appeared at Rydenburg, beside the daughter of Everton. Her Highness the Princess, You know Callas, those White Knight and your father and king are not standing on the same road -- "

"I know, but they have no objection."

"Correct, I just want to try him. It doesn't matter. Anyway, it's just a shadow. Compared to Callas, I can clearly distinguish between the light weight and the heavy weight. In order to work for your highness, even if I try it myself. "Oberbeck replied.

"Thank you for your father, Master Oberbeck." Princess thought that the father and this guy wanted to do Callas province, but can it succeed? She guessed that their attempt was nothing more than forget it/that's all.

She thought about it, the recommended places for Basset tower Royal Cavalry Academy may be increased. However, she wanted to remind me something, but thought about her identity of one's own, she stopped.

I only spoke at the end: "Then, Lord Oberbeck. I want to continue to listen to the later stories. Before my history class begins, I have about time to listen to two or three bars."

"Of course, please."
